Answer:

The length is   [tex]D  =3 \  m  [/tex]

Explanation:

The  velocity of the bullet is mathematically evaluated as

      [tex]v  =  a * t [/tex]

=>   [tex]v  = 1.5 * 2 [/tex]

=>    [tex]v  = 3 \  m/s  [/tex]    

Now from kinematic equation

       [tex]v^2  =  u^2 + 2* a  *  D[/tex]

Here  D is the length of the barrel  and  u =  0 m/s

So

     [tex]3^2  =  0 + 2* 1.5  *  D[/tex]

     [tex]D  = \frac{9}{3} [/tex]

      [tex]D  =3 \  m  [/tex]
